Processing and Deploying a Cube

By: Siddharth Mehta

Overview

Once the cube design and development is complete, the next step is to deploy the cube. When the cube is deployed, a database for the solution is created in the SSAS instance, if not already present. Each of the dimensions and measure group definitions are read, and data is calculated and stored as per the design and configuration of these objects. Once the cube is successfully deployed, client applications can connect to the cube and browse the cube data. We will deploy the cube we have developed and test connecting to the cube. We might also face errors during deployment, and we will attempt debugging and resolving these errors.
